Posted by randyo on Sun May 31 16:35:18 2015, in response to Re: Scheduling Capacity, posted by BusRider on Sun May 31 15:39:21 2015. The only true interlining was between the AA/B, and at first the QJ/QB/RJ. After the first post Chrystie pick, the RR Nassau St service interlined with the RR and not the QJ. When the M was sent to Stl in place of the QJ, the M and QB then interlined although as I mentioned in another post, elected QB intervals interlined with the RR and some selected RR/Nassau intervals interlined with the M but not quite to the same extent that the AA/B and M/QB interlined. Over the years, other interlining was done with the N and B on weekends but that didn’t last too long since a delay on one line might cause a delay on another if an interlined crew was delayed ann unable to make their trip. The other most common interlining was between the RR and GG in which a Rr crew arriving at Ctl would either make a GG trip out of Ctl or deadhead to Qns Plz for a GG trip after the GGs stopped running to Ctl. One of the oddest interlining between the GG and RR was a RR crew reporting at City Hall and staging what was referred to as a “manned gap train.” The train would be spotted during the PM rush hour in City Hall Yd and be made available for either the N or RR in either direction if either line encountered a big delay in service. After the rush hour if the train were used, the crew would somehow make it back to Ctl or if the train were not used, run light to Cll and if there were time, lay up the train and deadhead to Qns Plaza for a GG trip. Although it’s been a while since I did any of those, I recall that most of the RR/GG interlined runs were incorporated into the RR work program rather than the GG. |
